Dr Shawn Wilson - Strengthening Relations with Indigenous Knowledge

Indigenous Knowledge lives in the space between Indigenous Peoples and Country

Indigenous relational ways of being and doing lead to relational ways of knowing.

Dr Wilson draws from his seminal book ‘Research is Ceremony’ to discuss Indigenous research methodology and how we can use protocols and ceremony to listen to Country and strengthen our relationships with Knowledge.
